I just thought you might like to see what the new Von Richthofen mini is going to look like:
No, I'm afraid it's not a sneak preview. It's a repaint of the Rahn DR1. Mine represents 477/17, in which Von Richthofen claimed nine of his victories. I've yet to add the serial number, and the straight crosses date the aircraft after March 1918, as depicted in the Camel vs DR1 "Duel" book.
The underside is predominantly sky blue, and the streaky green is my attempt at the Fokker factory finish. The blob on the cabane strut is a mistake I only just noticed...
